    I love it, but mostly just for Marvin. I wish they would do this post-Gold with some real footage cut in. But damn nice anyway.

  6. JC says:

    Yeah it has been shown, I think during the Russia game at halftime. CRAZY commercial, though. Marvin Gaye is one of the coolest brothers of all time.

  13. Lee says:

    Not American, but I thought it woud have been better. I woud have done like a movie trailor with a look at all of them trainning over the 4 years … kinda like rocky.

    Didn’t seem that imaginative to me .. sorry

    I am not sure where you are from but you might not like it because you are not American. Marvin Gaye is an American icon in our music world… this was the perfect commercial for that very fact. Why show them training over 4 years when they were screwing up back then, world games, FIBA, etc… obviously they were not training hard enough. They did exactly what they were suppose to do… show current practices since this resulting in getting the gold. One word… PERFECT!!!
